11 - Act 2 Start
Most of us stayed in the Inn Name
Marius and Perdita went to see Senator Dao who we had saved from the fistfight in the gala. Recieved a Staff of Healing.
Brother Zubari also found Marius and gave us a reward for saving them in the senate underground.
2 days of recovering pass, meet Martelle at the Inn. Invited us into a carriage. Took us to a small townhouse, and then into a library cramped with books. Eutropia greets us. Pythareus is now claiming that Grand Prince Stavian III adopted him as an heir before the fuss at the Gala and has claim to the throne.
The honor guard have locked down the palace, taking no stance on the succession debate, only loyal to the throne.
Pythareus retreated to his fortress city. Eutropia's supported likely have forces they can call upon but she has no intent of starting a civil war.
They have an idea of where we'll be effective to her cause. Will tell us more details in a week. Expect to go to the countryside. Also prep some clothes and a costume.
Martelle is going to make one of us the heir of the Bettany estate. The Ulfengard have locked down the palace, sealing Eutropia's wealth with it. They have a second estate, the palace of birdsong, but the stewards are refusing to leave and are currying favor with Pythareus. Also they're Lotheeds. Count Bartelby Lotheed has been "running" the place. Demanding the return of the estate would be an embarassment, but we can weaken his powerbase and woo his supporters.
Alice Bettany is now Perdita's fake second cousin once removed. She died a decade ago with no heirs. Perdita will have to debut at the tanniger jubilee. We must learn the land and earn the loyalty of the nobles and the citizens, and just try to improve things there in the county of Meratt.
Must not attract Bartelby's ire before we're ready to act. This mission is critically important, Eutropia is low on funds and sold her townhome to fund our mission.
Tanager Jubilee is a founder's day celebration, should start right as we're arriving. good way to make a good Impression
Some figure calling themselves the night swan causing trouble in the region.
Got harrassed by beggars and merchants at the beggarwood.
Arrived in lothedar, Martelle left us there, wished us luck.
Arrived at the Birdsong Estate. Were invited to stay in the estate.
